Theresa, whenever I hear any of our stories about childbirth etc it never fails to bring tears to my eyes. It really is as if I feel my own pain all over again. I think that is what makes this group so great because we all understand exactly what each other is going through.
I hope you get all your appointments sooner rather than later, it is going to be so exciting watching this pregnancy progress.
Megan, we are going to be testing on the same day, how exciting. DH was asking me last night why we couldn't test earlier because with Charlie I did one of the early detection tests and got the slightest BFP (had to squint really really hard and hold the stick up to the light and even then wasn't sure!!) we did another one the next day on full bladder and had it confirmed. So we new a few days before AF was due. This time though I want to wait till my girlfriend is here. Remember she's the one who was here when I lost Charlie. She is 5mths PG herself but it doesn't bother me at all because she knows exactly how lucky she is. Not only did she experience lsoing Charlie with me but she has suffered a miscarriage and has had a lot of trouble getting PG herself. She actually got her BFP the night before she was about the start the whole IVF process!
AFM: its kinda strange, as I've been monitoring myself so closely over the last few months trying to get the meds etc right for my thyroid/progesterone issues I am extremely in tune with my bod and my cycles atm. Anyway I have been noticing a few very subtle symptoms this week (aside from the bloating caused by my cheese and spinach roll that is!). On there own they don't really mean anything but when I put them altogether I am really starting to think I am going to be getting a BFP this month. I have been slightly nauseas in the morning, but its kind of that tired nausea you get when you are super tired. It seems to go once I get up and get moving. I have also been really tired, but I get pretty sleepy sometimes when I am using the progesterone cream. I had a massage yesterday and got super dizzy when I stood up, which never usually happens. I have been slightly constipated (TMI) which is also not uncommon for me between ovulation and AF but it has not been a problem since I've been using the cream so??? Every now and then I get a bit of a tingle in my BB's. HHHmmmm what else... oh and I have had the slightests of headaches for the last 24 hours which there is no reason for.
So as you can see, nothing concrete but all the signs seem to be pointing in the right direction. Am trying not get my hopes up though. DH reckons I am for sure, but to be honest... what would he know he is only a guy and they really have no idea about these things!!
Hi to all my lovely ladies and lets hope this time next week I have a BFP to report. I'm not sure if I'll test next Saturday or Sunday. I think AF is due Sunday?? Probably won't be able to help myself though and will POAS Saturday!
